The History of Todd’s Inheritance
The Todd family settled on North Point in 1664 and farmed over 1700 acres. Some of this land is still farmed today, over 350 years later. The house was used as a lookout post for the American militia awaiting the arrival of the British in 1814, and is now part of North Point State Park.
